One thing that members of social networks love is pictures of food – especially on visual platforms such as Pinterest and Instagram. With an eye on this appetizing market, Swiss company Dacuda is launching 3DAround. It’s a mobile app for iPhone that allows users to take 3D photographs, which will make online food-gazers salivate even more.
Dacuda based the app on its SLAM Scan 3D technology, which turns the iPhone into a 3D scanner. 3DAround extracts depth information from the objects it photographs as users move the camera around to capture food images from several angles. The app then merges those pictures into one 3D image. The result is a holographic representation with more realism and details than a regular photo.
